Our Daily Bread designs January New Release Blog Hop!

Happy New Year, everyone!!!! Not only is it a brand new year, but a brand new month, which brings brand new stamps from Our Daily Bread designs....yay!!! We are super excited about the new sets.......if you haven't seem them all yet, check out the New Release post on the ODBD blog!

Since today is the first day of the month, that means BLOG HOP!!! If you have hopped from the amazingly creative Dawn Lusk's blog, you are in the right place. If you stopped here by chance, please make sure to head to the ODBD blog and start at the beginning of the blog hop, plus catch the deets on how to be one of five winners of a $20 gift certificate to the ODBD store...how cool is that?! You have until Monday, January 2nd at 8pm EST to complete the hop. Good luck!!!

My sample card today was cut out with Spellbinders Labels 17 dies (Pssst......there will be avideo tutorial Monday on the ODBD blog which shows how to make shaped cards with your cutting dies....don't miss it!) I have used the "Bleeding Heart" set, along with SEI "Promise Me" designer paper, apricot grosgrain ribbon and pearls (to bring out the apricot colors in the paper). The next photo shows a close-up of the Bleeding Heart image which was cut out with paper snips and a craft knife, then popped up with foam tape. Tedious work, yes, but it's so worth the outcome!

Oh how beautiful and stunning Angie!! I just love what you have done with the sparkle, the coloring of the bleeding hearts and the design. Your cut work is outstanding!! I hope your back continues to improve. I am praying for you!!! Happy New Year to you and your hubby!! May God richly bless you with health and happiness in the new year.hugs,Chris

Happy New Year, Angie, to you and Tom!! May God bless you beyond measure!! Girl, your card is so beautiful and elegant! The pink and sparkle take this beauty to a total different level!! Hugs and blessings, Sabrina

Beautiful little Pink bleeding hearts! Every Spring when mine bloom I always look at their beauty, and think to myself... what a special gift from God to create such a heart warming flower, after a long cold winter. Your card is absolutely beautiful.

Angie ~ What an amazing card. I love everything about it. The way you cut out the bleeding heart stamp is great as well as the coloring of the stamp. I love the color combination of this card too. I can't wait for the upcoming shaped card tutorial.

Hello from Australia!We are trying to regrow our family friendly blog too with the New Year just underway!!I’m following you now, and hope you’ll stop by and visit our blog sometime too!http://beourbest.blogspot.com/

I think this bleeding heart stamp is calling my name! I love the tenderness it makes me feel. The colors are absolutely wonderful. I do like how you pulled the apricot out of the pretty paper with the bow color. And the shape of the card adds so much to the overall effect. Nicely done!D Morgan

This was easy to identify as one of your beautiful creations - it has the mark of the 'lovely' and sweet lady who created it! Maybe this is one of those stamps that needs a die cut made to match, but you sure did a fantastic job with all the fussy cutting - definitely worth the work to see the final result!Love the SHAPED card - always so special! HUGS!

i love the making of this card on the blog today. i just replaced my big shot, but decided not to go with teh calibur, since i read you could only use spellbinders. i love spellbinders, but i do have some of the other dies by sizzex

It's too late to get in on the prizes, with church yesterday, work today, and Ladies Ministry tonight, I just ran out of time! But I did want to visit your blog and see your gorgeous addition!! Beautiful, Angie!!!
